A warm welcome on behalf of the organiser of the IDSF European Championships Latin 2003 and the Swiss Dancesport Association.

The European Championships will be held on May, 3 in the french speaking part of Switzerland, in the Centre Malley in Lausanne. Although the event is going to take place in an ice-skating hall, don't be afraid to bring along your evening gown. On one hand, the ice will be gone in May, on the other hand there will be a boiling atmosphere on the dance floor.

If you plan to stay a little bit longer, Lausanne is very close to many popular excursion destinations such as Montreux and Chillon Castle, Zermatt and the Matterhorn, the Jungfrau and Lucerne, the historical hamlet of Gruyères, the Les Diablerets Glacier, the Vaud Alps and the famous French resort of Chamonix. Not to speak of all the interesting places to visit in Lausanne, including the Olympic Museum. As you probably know the competition is going to take place next door to the International Olympic Committee.

Lausanne can easily be reached from anywhere (see travel information) – by road (the A1/E25 and A9/E27 motorways), by rail (both the Swiss Federal Railway network and the French TGV Paris-Milan line) and by air (just 40 miles from Geneva-Cointrin International Airport).
